#1: Stunning Medium-Length Waves

Do you want to up your long bob game? Try some stunning medium-length waves. The best way to jazz up your lob would be to add some layers and texture, then style it with some waves. Try to keep heat away from the ends of your hair. This will keep your hair healthy and the waves more modern and beachy. Ask your stylist for tips on curling and what products will work well for your hair texture.

#2: Sandy Blonde Balayage for Long Hair

Sandy blonde balayage is ideal for long hair. This soft, muted blonde color blends with her natural hue, resulting in an easy, smooth grow-out process. To keep your long hair shiny and healthy, using a quality hydrating shampoo and conditioner is necessary.

#3: Soft Pastel Sandy Blonde

Soft blonde color is perfect because it still falls under the “natural” hair color range but has soft hues of pink to give you a little bit of fun with your hair color. Remember to book an appointment to get your hair toned every 4-6 weeks to maintain this pastel color, or ask your stylist if they recommend a certain color-depositing shampoo to maintain your color at home. Avoid shampooing your hair often, swimming, and using hot water when you do shampooing your hair. Ask your stylist what shampoo and conditioner they recommend because the products you use will make a difference in maintaining your hair color.

#4: Very Light Sandy Blonde Tone

A very light sandy blonde tone is beautiful on long, natural-looking hair. Ask your stylist if a sandy tone is a good option. Blonde hair can be high maintenance, so try a more rooted blonde if you want easier maintenance. Toning should be scheduled every 4 to 6 weeks to keep that nice sandy blonde tone.

#29: Sandy Honey Blonde Balayage

Use balayage to jazz up your long hair, just like the model in the image above. Despite not getting the lightest one, a sandy honey blonde will make your hair glow. Pops of warmer and radiant sandy blonde tones certainly add subtle dimension and flair.

Ask for a dimensional beach blonde. It was achieved after 2-3 sessions of hand-painted balayage. I love how many shades of sandy blonde you can achieve by slowly building up the lightness over time.

This sand blonde hair color is not a look that is achieved in one session. We can all be impatient, but splitting up the chemical process over several appointments allows your hair to be as healthy and strong as possible while achieving an ideal blonde.

It’s also important to use good salon-grade products to nourish your hair in the meantime. Try the entire Kevin Murphy repair.me line to strengthen and moisturize in-between appointments.

#30: Short Blunt Cut with Sandy Blonde Hair Coloring

A short blunt cut with sandy blonde hair coloring is the ultimate girl-on-the-go cut for fine hair.

A sandy blonde hair color is a rich beige-toned shade of blonde blended between warm and cool tones. Sparkling like champagne, it’s known to give tresses amazing natural depth! This subtle hue looks best on fair to medium skin complexions and light-colored eyes.

Hairstylist Whitney Boyer from Texas says it’s important to consult your hair colorist thoroughly. She notes, “Ask how many sessions it might take. Not everyone has hair that’s easy to lift! You’ll also need to know how often you should be back in the salon.”

More than the budget, you’ll need patience! The goal is to get the lift you need while keeping the integrity of the hair. For this, Boyer recommends her favorite product, Olaplex, because going lighter requires extra care for the hair, and Olaplex is great for this.

Boyer also says to be careful of overusing purple shampoo. She explains, “I can tell when someone has overused because their blonde will be dull. The color will shift to a cooler shade without the gold, which is what purple shampoo eliminates.”
